An
ambitious target has been understood when promoting this meeting: to involve
technicians, scientists, public administrators, associations and institutions
in a debate on the role of aerosols in atmospheric pollution, the actions which
should be adopted and the limitations proposed by the actual regulations. Although
more than two decades have been dedicated to these subjects in an extremely
abundant literature and in several meetings, the distance of the clear understandings
and the little appreciations of the proposed actions seem vanify any optimistic
forecast for the next future. Therefore the Italian Association of Chemical
Engineering (AIDIC) sponsored by the major Industries, Universities and Institutions
invite all the specialists to a three days conference where the above theme
will be put under discussion from all the possible different perspectives.
